There are many items in the literature indicating that certain signal features (SFs) of cutting forces, vibrations or acoustic emission are useful for the diagnosis of tool wear in certain single experiments. There is no answer to whether these SFs are universal. The novelty of this article is an attempt to answer these questions and propose a large set of SFs related to tool wear, but without including superfluous SFs. The analysis of the usefulness of the signal properties for the state of the cutting tool in turning was carried out on a large experiment. A number of various SFs obtained for various signal analysis methods were selected for the study. It is found that no SF is always related to the tool wear, so we define many different signal characteristics that can be related to the tool wear (basic set) and automatically select those associated with it in a given machining case. To this end, the relationship between the measures and the wear of the tool was analyzed. Interrelated measures were excluded from it. The obtained results can be used to build a new generation of more effective tool wear diagnostics systems. One of the goals of the tool wear diagnosis system is to save the energy used. The results can also enable the refinement of existing algorithms that predict the energy consumption of a machine.

This paper investigates the feasibility of using acoustic emission (AE) signal analysis for the detection of the breakage as well as the chipping of a cutting tool during machining. Experiments were conducted on a lathe using conventional carbide insert tools under realistic cutting conditions. The tangential and feed forces were also measured for comparisons. The sensitivities of the AE signal and cutting forces to insert chipping and fracture are illustrated. The relationship between acoustic emission energy and the combined effect of fracture surface area and cutting load is discussed.

This paper discusses the monitoring of cutting tool wear based on time series analysis of acoustic emission signals. In cutting operations, acoustic emission provides useful information concerning the tool wear condition because of the fundamental differences between its source mechanisms in the rubbing friction on the wear land and the dislocation action in the shear zones. In this study, a signal processing scheme is developed which uses an autoregressive time-series to model the acoustic emission generated during cutting. The modeling scheme is implemented with a stochastic gradient algorithm to update the model parameters adoptively and is thus a suitable candidate for in-process sensing applications. This technique encodes the acoustic emission signal features into a time varying model parameter vector. Experiments indicate that the parameter vector ignores the change of cutting parameters, but shows a strong sensitivity to the progress of cutting tool wear. This result suggests that tool wear detection can be achieved by monitoring the evolution of the model parameter vector during machining processes.

Abstract In order to realize the nondestructive testing (NDT) of the internal leakage fault of hydraulic spool valves, the internal leakage rate must be predicted by AE (acoustic emission) technology. An AE experimental platform of internal leakage of hydraulic spool valves is built to study the characteristics of AE signals of internal leakage and the relationship between AE signals and leakage rates. The research results show the AE signals present a wideband characteristic. The main frequencies are concentrated in 30~50 kHz and the peak frequency is around 40 kHz. When the leakage rate is large, there are significant signal characteristics appearing in the high frequency band of 75~100 kHz. The exponent of the root mean square(RMS) of AE signals is positively correlated with the exponent of the leakage rate only if the leakage rate is greater than 2~3 mL/min. This find could be used to predict the internal leakage rate of hydraulic spool valves.

AbstractIn the last years, hard-to-machine nickel-based alloys have been widely employed in the aerospace industry for their properties of high strength, excellent resistance to corrosion and oxidation, and long creep life at elevated temperatures. As the machinability of these materials is quite low due to high cutting forces, high temperature development and strong work hardening, during machining the cutting tool conditions tend to rapidly deteriorate. Thus, tool health monitoring systems are highly desired to improve tool life and increase productivity. This research work focuses on tool wear estimation during turning of Inconel 718 using wavelet packet transform (WPT) signal analysis and machine learning paradigms. A multiple sensor monitoring system, based on the detection of cutting force, acoustic emission and vibration acceleration signals, was employed during experimental turning trials. The detected sensor signals were subjected to WPT decomposition to extract diverse signal features. The most relevant features were then selected, using correlation measurements, in order to be utilized in artificial neural network based machine learning paradigms for tool wear estimation.

It is known that adequate knowledge of the sensitivity of acoustic emission signal parameters to various experimental parameters is indispensable. According to the review of the literature, a lack of knowledge was noticeable concerning the behavior of acoustic emission parameters under a broad range of machining parameters. This becomes more visible in milling operations that include sophisticated chip formation morphology and significant interaction effects and directional pressures and forces. To remedy the aforementioned lack of knowledge, the effect of the variation of cutting parameters on the time and frequency features of acoustic emission signals, extracted and computed from the milling operation, needs to be investigated in a wide aspect. The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of cutting parameters including the feed rate, cutting speed, depth of cut, material properties, as well as cutting tool coating/insert nose radius on computed acoustic emission signals featured in the frequency domain. Similar studies on time-domain signal features were already conducted. To conduct appropriate signal processing and feature extraction, a signal segmentation and processing approach is proposed based on dividing the recorded acoustic emission signals into three sections with specific signal durations associated with cutting tool movement within the work part. To define the sensitive acoustic emission parameters to the variation of cutting parameters, advanced signal processing and statistical approaches were used. Despite the time features of acoustic emission signals, frequency domain acoustic emission parameters seem to be insensitive to the variation of cutting parameters. Moreover, cutting factors governing the effectiveness of acoustic emission signal parameters are hinted. Among these, the cutting speed and feed rate seem to have the most noticeable effects on the variation of time–frequency domain acoustic emission signal information, respectively. The outcomes of this work, along with recently completed works in the time domain, can be integrated into advanced classification and artificial intelligence approaches for numerous applications, including real-time machining process monitoring.
